More!! The last picture is of an Olds truck... the guy who owned it worked for Olds for 40 years & never knew they made trucks. The last picture is of a chugger motor he had in the bed. He found the truck form a mag about chugger motors. It was his 79th B-day last nite!

400 to 500 cars every Sat nite! It would have to be inside an air conditioned arena with valet parking and gas vouchers to get that kind of participation here.
Click to expand...

I drove a ragtop there & *believe* me... it was HOT!!! It's held in a Kroger parkin' lot. This Kroger has a walk-in beer cooler & I spent about 15 min in there "lookin' @ beer"!!! Man... that felt GOOD!

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing, Tripper. Can't eeven get 50 to a once a month cruise here.:(
 
Cool!

Tripper,
400-500 cars? Our big yearly car shows barely draw that many, that's awesome!
